The Gaming Outsider

The Gaming Outsider Podcast is a show dedicated to video gaming of all kinds with a focus on the community. Here at The GO, we don't subscribe to just one platform, and we realize that we don't have the ability to play every game that's out there. Our goal is to discuss ours and our listener's perspectives on current and former games that we have played while keeping a positive environment.

Scott, Josh, and Zach had an opportunity to check out three scary games for the Halloween season, and they're here to share their impressions. Scott played "Whispering Willows", Zach played "Shadowgate", and both Scott and Josh played "Slender: the Arrival".

On this week's episode, Scott and Josh pitch to each other their concept of a horror video game that they would like to see made. There's also plenty of talk of the trailer reveals from Paris Games Week, and Scott talks about his early impressions of "The Legend of Zelda: Triforce Heroes" on the 3DS.

Scott, Zach, and Robby spent the weekend playing the first few hours of "Assassin's Creed: Syndicate", and wanted to share their first impressions of the latest game in this hugely popular series from Ubisoft.

There's also quite a few different games we've been playing, including "Rock Band 4", "The Jackbox Party Pack", the finale for "Life is Strange", "Transformers Devasatation", and "Yoshi's Wooly World". The news topics included Nintendo's dev kits for the NX.

Scott and Josh were lucky enough to get early access to the beta for "Star Wars Battlefront", and spent that time (as well as the weekend when it was open to everyone) trying it out. They're here to discuss their initial impression of the beta as well as decide if this will be a day one purchase for them or not.

Scott, Josh, and Zach are to discuss which games we wish had a a level editor similar to the one available in "Super Mario Maker". Zach gives his early impressions of "Soma" on the PS4, and Scott talks about a new iOS game that he's been playing. There's even a smidge of "Star Wars Battlefront" talk to kick things off.

The GO Cast welcomes returning guest Troy Heinritz as well as a first-time, Casey Heinritz, to share their impressions of "Super Mario Maker" for the WiiU console.
